"Squeak..."

The sound of the door shaft turning was particularly harsh. Fortunately, dozens of sergeants stood at the entrance of the corridor, blocking the sound with their bodies.

Zheng Xiaoru stood at the entrance of the corridor, holding a torch in his hand, looking at the sergeant in front of him who was about to enter the south gate, his face red.

The army has finally arrived, which also means that Zheng Xiaoru has successfully completed the first phase of the combat mission. Next, he will join the army to launch an attack on Liaoyang City and kill the Eight Banners Army.

There are nearly 200,000 officers and soldiers of the Manchu Eight Banners and the Mongolian Eight Banners in Liaoyang City. It can be expected that this will be a brutal fight. Such a large-scale fight is carried out in a city. Such a situation rarely occurs.

After this battle, the city of Liaoyang will definitely become famous.

"General Zheng, thank you for your hard work..."

"My subordinates have met General Zu..."

Zheng Xiaoru was a little surprised when he saw Zu Dashou coming towards him. Logically speaking, Zu Dashou was the commander-in-chief of the entire army. He was mainly responsible for commanding operations and did not need to enter the city at the forefront of the army.

Zu Dashou waved to Zheng Xiaoru, with a resolute look on his face.

"General Zheng, we don't have so many etiquettes between you and me. Just before entering the city, I have already considered that the temporary Chinese army tent will be set up on the south gate wall. After our army enters the south gate, we will face Houjin.

There are more than 50,000 Houjin Tatars and Mongol Tatars in the Tatar military camp. Fortunately, the terrain in front of the South Gate Corridor is quite open, which is convenient for the army to launch an attack. I have already issued an order.

Enter the south gate within time, and together with the 10,000 soldiers under your command, a total of 40,000 people will launch an attack on the Houjin Tatar camp, and strive to end the battle here in the shortest possible time..."

"The battle at the South Gate is commanded by General Jin Li. You assist General Jin in launching a general attack on the 50,000-strong Jin Tatars..."

"During the battle, General Zu Kuan led 30,000 soldiers to capture the North Gate, East Gate and West Gate as quickly as possible. We must first seal the Liaoyang City tightly, and then safely annihilate the Houjin Tatars in the city...

."

"Two days ago, I gave orders to General Niu Ben and General Li Guohan who were stationed in Anshan. Five thousand Denglai New Army soldiers were left to station in Anshan City. The rest of the soldiers all set off to Liaoyang City to participate in the battle. This time, we must

The Houjin Tatars stationed in Liaoyang must be completely wiped out, and no one of them can escape..."

Zheng Xiaoru nodded slightly.

"I obey my orders. My brothers have been prepared for a long time. They are monitoring the patrolling Eight Banners Army sergeants..."

...

The former army sergeants who quickly entered the south gate all gathered in the open space under the city wall. More than a hundred meters in front of them, 8,500 soldiers led by Zheng Xiaoru stared eagerly at the Eight Banners Army sergeants who were about to patrol.

Zu Dashou had already led hundreds of Denglai New Army soldiers to the south gate and set up a temporary Chinese army tent on the archery tower, which overlooks the Liaoyang city.

"General Zheng, we brothers will kill them all soon..."

Zheng Xiaoru was hit hard on the shoulder, and Zheng Xiaoru almost staggered. He turned around and saw Zu Dabi with a crazy and murderous expression on his face. Zheng Xiaoru knew that Zu Dabi was nicknamed "Zu Er Madman" and started to fight.

He didn't even care about his life, he just knew how to charge forward desperately and kill the enemy with all his strength. In comparison, Jin Li was much calmer and looked quite calm.

After shaking his head helplessly, Zheng Xiaoru looked at Jin Li and Zu Dabi and spoke softly.

"General Jin, after the attack begins, I will lead the attack with 30,000 soldiers, and you and General Zu will lead the remaining soldiers..."

Before Zheng Xiaoru finished speaking, Zu Dabi shook his head desperately.

"This is not possible. Brothers all followed me and rushed forward. Speaking of which, I also want to thank you. If you hadn't killed the scout who reported the news, I wouldn't have known what to do. It was also my negligence. I always thought about

During the fighting in Liaoyang City, I didn't pay special attention to Hou Jin's Tatar scouts. When I was at Shili Changting, I heard that you killed the scouts who reported the news. I was so happy, don't mention it..."

Zu Dabi suddenly stopped and looked ahead...

The patrol carrying torches has already approached.

A bloodthirsty smile appeared on Zu Dabi's face again. He knew very well that the fighting was about to begin.

Jin Li looked at the patrol situation, turned to the sergeant beside him and spoke.

"You guys surround them immediately, take the initiative and kill them. There are a total of twelve Tatars in the patrol. I will give you two minutes. After killing the patrolling Tatars, the army will begin to attack the Tatar military camp..."

The simple map Zheng Xiaoru gave to Zu Dashou, Jin Li, Zu Dabi and Zu Kuan all looked at it carefully. The military camp two hundred meters away from the south gate was drawn in great detail. This military camp was about five hundred meters long and two meters deep.

Hundred meters, this area was originally full of residential buildings. After the Eight Banners Army entered Liaoyang City, they drove away the people living here and converted the area into a temporary military camp. Such a military camp was destined not to be neat. The Eight Banners Army converted many of the rooms into

They are all connected, making it easy to camp.

This indicates that street fighting will become the mainstream of the battle in Liaoyang City.

There are also military camps of this type at the North Gate, East Gate and West Gate, but they are very small in scale. Compared with the South Gate, they are not really military camps. At most, there are only a few hundred sergeants stationed there. Their main tasks are to guard the corridors and patrol on the city walls.

.

When the black bow and arrow was aimed forward, Zheng Xiaoru's eyes instantly turned red.

A war he had never experienced before was about to begin. To have the opportunity to participate in such an important battle and to be the first to launch an attack on the Eight Banners Army was a great honor and opportunity for every soldier.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

More than a hundred bows and arrows roared away, heading towards the twelve patrolling sergeants who came over.

A short scream appeared, as did the sound of swords and guns hitting the ground.

There was no movement at the military camp not far away.

Zheng Xiaoru smiled bitterly and shook his head, while Zu Dabi grinned widely. Such movements did not disturb the Eight Banners Army sergeants in the barracks. It seemed that Denglai's new army was very lucky.

Jin Li also had a smile on his face.

"General Zu, General Zheng, let's break through from the front and kill as many Houjin Tatars as possible. If Houjin Tatars evacuate on a large scale towards the city, we don't have to pursue them desperately. The coach has said that in the dark night

When attacking, don't be too aggressive. Our combat mission tonight is mainly to control the four city gates in the southeast, northwest, and destroy the military camp. After dawn, we can launch a general attack on the Houjin Tatars..."

Zheng Xiaoru cupped his fists and saluted Jin Li.

"General Jin, I understand. I have a suggestion. The military camp in front is divided into three parts, one on each side. The center is where the officers of the Manchu and Mongolian Banners are located. If we focus our attack on

In the middle position, kill as many officers as possible from the Manchu Eight Banners and the Meng Eight Banners, and the Eight Banners Army will soon fall into a leaderless state..."

Jin Li nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, I will attack in the middle, you will be responsible for the right, and General Zu will be responsible for the left..."

Before Jin Li finished speaking, Zu Dabi became a little anxious.

"General Jin, we have agreed a long time ago that I will be in charge of the middle..."

Jin Li looked at Zheng Xiaoru and Zu Dabi, and spoke again without any doubt.

"General Zu, I am still in charge of the middle route. I will command all the five hundred soldiers in the scout camp. It is very important to kill as many officers of the Eight Banners Army as possible. General Zu fights bravely. I think you will be able to kill as many as possible."

Kill the Eight Banners Army sergeant on the right. Besides, the coach also means the same thing..."

The officers of the Eight Banners Army are among the elite in the army and have the strongest combat effectiveness. They are all promoted after several battles. When facing these officers, it is most important to fight calmly. Zu Dabi is obviously not suitable. Jin

Li thought carefully and got support from Zu Dashou.

Hearing that Zu Dashou also supported this decision, Zu Dabi fell silent.

The bodies of the twelve patrol sergeants who were shot as hedgehogs were quickly carried away.

Jin Li looked at Zu Dabi and Zheng Xiaoru again, and spoke in a solemn tone.

"It's already three o'clock in the morning, and the Eight Banners' troops have changed defenses. We don't have much time left. The officers and sergeants of the Manchu Eight Banners and the Mongolian Eight Banners in the barracks are sleeping. We launched an attack at this time and have taken advantage of it. I hope you calm down.

Our goal in combat is to kill as many officers and sergeants of the Manchu and Mongolian Banners as possible. Remember, do not think about annihilating all the Eight Banners sergeants in the barracks. After all, there are 50,000 of them. Once the attack starts, the entire Liaoyang

The city will be in turmoil..."

"The commander is directing operations at the south gate and will give us new combat orders at any time. If the Eight Banners Army in Liaoyang City chooses to attack at night, our combat deployment will have to change accordingly, but we must wait for the commander's combat orders.

..”

"I won't go into details about the importance of this battle. You all know it well. General Zheng, the coach said that you deserve the greatest credit. You led 10,000 soldiers to sneak into Liaoyang City, successfully opened the south gate, and let the army

We can enter Liaoyang City to fight, but we still have a lot to do before we can truly win..."

"It's three o'clock now. I hope that within an hour, we can end the fighting here..."

"General Zu Kuan has led 30,000 soldiers to set out from the left and right sides of the city wall to capture the North Gate, East Gate and West Gate. We must fight desperately to focus the Eight Banners Army's main attention here and let Zu Kuan

General Kuan was able to successfully occupy the north gate, east gate and west gate, trapping all the Eight Banners troops in Liaoyang City..."

Zheng Xiaoru and Zu Dabi stopped talking and clasped their fists at Jin Li.

The 40,000 sergeants had already been divided into three parts. Zu Dabi led 15,000 people, Zheng Xiaoru led 15,000 people, and Jin Li led 10,000 people.
Chapter completed!
